Use Seat Belt Properly

Use a seat belt when you operate with a roll-over
protective structure (ROPS) or cab to minimize chance of
injury from an accident such as an overturn.

Do not use a seat belt if operating without a ROPS or cab.

Replace entire seat belt if mounting hardware, buckle,
belt, or retractor show signs of damage.

Inspect seat belt and mounting hardware at least
once a year. Look for signs of loose hardware or belt
damage, such as cuts, fraying, extreme or unusual wear,
discoloration, or abrasion. Replace only with replacement
parts approved for your machine. See your John Deere
dealer.

Operate Guidance Systems Safely

Do not use guidance systems on roadways. Always turn
off (disable) guidance systems before entering a roadway.
Do not attempt to turn on (activate) a guidance system
while transporting on a roadway.

Guidance systems are intended to aid the operator in
performing field operations more efficiently. The operator
is always responsible for the machine path.

Guidance Systems include any application that automates
vehicle steering. This includes, but may not be limited to,
AutoTrac, iGuide, iTEC Pro, ATU, and RowSense.

To prevent injury to the operator and bystanders:

Never get on or off a moving vehicle.

Verify the machine, implement, and guidance system
are set up correctly. If using iTEC Pro, verify accurate
boundaries have been defined.

Remain alert and pay attention to the surrounding
environment.

Take control of the steering wheel, when necessary, to
avoid field hazards, bystanders, equipment, or other
obstacles.

Stop operation if poor visibility conditions impair your
ability to operate the machine or identify people or
obstacles in the machine path.

Consider field conditions, visibility, and vehicle
configuration when selecting vehicle speed.

Use AutoTrac Controller on Approved Vehicles

Use AutoTrac Controller only on Approved Vehicles—see
StellarSupport.Deere.com for list of approved vehicles

When activity monitor is selected, AutoTrac Controller
looks for operator activity every seven minutes. Operator

will receive a time-out warning 15 seconds before
AutoTrac deactivates. Pressing the resume will reset
activity monitor timer.
